RESOURCES FOR PARENTs in western massachusetts

Welcome. We’re so sorry you need us, but we’re so glad you found us.

If you have experienced a miscarriage, stillbirth, or infant loss, you already know that navigating grief in our world can be a challenging experience. You may not have a friend to turn to who can relate to the complicated feelings of grief you might be experiencing. Empty Arms is a community resource here in the Pioneer Valley that works to connect people with one another so that they feel less alone. We offer a wide variety of resources to try to meet each person where they're at and provide them with whatever level of support feels comfortable and appropriate at that time.

Empty Arms Bereavement Support

Empty Arms Bereavement Support is a Western Massachusetts-based non-profit organization offering resources and support to families across the region who have experienced miscarriage, stillbirth, or infant loss. We are affiliated with the national organization Share.

Empty Arms offers a variety of bereavement support to grieving families across Western Massachusetts. One in four pregnancies ends in a loss, and we are grateful to be able to support families during their darkest times.
